Phil Ivey has come out of hiding and is playing the APPT Macau tournament, his first one since the news of Black Friday hit. Ivey was up to nearly 100,000 at one point and finished day one with 51,200 chips (starting stack: 30k).
This is great news for poker fans as Ivey is basically the best poker player in the world and poker needs him just as much as he needs it. Would be so sick if he takes this tourny down.
That it would be
Poker does need Ivey, and it wouldn't be terribly surprising for him to win the tourney or get knocked out late on a bad beat.
Noo but he is deff fun to watch among a few other playersQuote:

is he going to lock poker now? lol
I heard Phil Ivey is only playing War on Cake now
If he knew what was going on at Full Tilt Poker then I don't think he should be showing his face.
Don't be surprised when PokerStars announces him as their newest Pro.Quote:

Im so close to macau right now I can see it!
I wish him well - not his fault
thumbs up 4 Phil ;)
Ivey was eliminated in the last level of Day 2. No cash for Ivey in his first tournament since Black Friday. :(
I could definetly see ivey joining the pokerstars team.
Now if only phil plays in america instead of asia...that would be a bigger deal since the us players got screwed by ftp
Ivey won't play in America until everyone gets paid from FTP. That's one of the main reasons he skipped the WSOP this year.Quote:

Theres a reason hes staying out of the states and its not cause hes waiting for American players to get paid from tilt. ROFL. If he didnt have any involvement hed be here playing in turnys and cash games!!!
idk how some of those pros can show there face with the whole pnzi scheme FT had.....alot of them got huge payouts like 20M+
FTP and PIvey is a big scammers :))
Iveys better at cash games I believe than Tournaments but he's still a solid player all aroundQuote:

Nice, about time he resurfaces. Been away for a while now
I bet he won't play many tourneys and he'll stay in macau for awhile for the cash games.
ohh yeah i dont suprise too
glad hes back.. back to crackin heads hopefully
I'm sure he never stopped just BC he isn't playing tournies doesn't mean much to me BC I'm sure he hasn't stopped
still pissed at the fact that ft is gone so screw u phil n all people who supported ft
